I swear I've never heard of half these refs. Are they going through them like paper plates or something?

 

[Killem Dafoe]

There's a whole host of posts bitching about a more or less even game when you take away the shitty officiating. Maybe losing your shit is too much. But the nonstop negativity, win, lose, or draw is getting tiring.

I mean, we control unnecessary negativity pretty well for the most part, but there will be negativity especially when this team isn't playing well. Until there is a positive only sports message board this is to be expected. I wish it was perfect for everyone, but alas...

Knocking a man down and releasing your coverage of the player is losing the man. This isn't mites where a player on the ice is down for 10 seconds. These are pros and a man in the slot doesn't just get abandoned.

He wasn’t abandoned. If Fox went to cover a player on his knees and the pass got through the crease to an open player on his feet people would be crucifying Fox.

This team passes the puck like Mr Magoo plays darts.

 

[DanielBrassard]

The rangers inability to make a pass is astounding right now.

 

[Leonardo87]

did you hear his collab with Coheed & Cambria for Jesse's Girl 2?

I did not. I’m not really a fan, but I enjoy the 80’s rock stuff. They tend to get decent acts here, for a theme park.

No, apparently we play man on man on the PK because we're praising Schneider for skating out to the blueline.

I think a large issue is that people take their anger that they have in their lives out on the rangers resulting in questionable and impatient assessment of the team.

Podkolzin is still around?

I criticize Schneider because he's

View attachment 993788

1) Standing there playing with his dick

2) Nowhere near his position. We're not playing man on man on the penalty kill.

You said he was covering someone. There's the goal right there. Who's he covering?

I don't think Schneider caused the goal. I think a guy scoring from his knees caused the goal and that's life, but you're adamant that Schneider had his man. Is his man invisible?

Post the video and not the ideal clip, but regardless are you suggesting a 1-3 d structure on the pk since Trocheck and fox are down low presumably with their men? But since you did post it let's ask who the hell is fox covering? He left perry to stand next to Igor in the crease. It's not even like he is defending a play to McDavid bc his stick is literally behind Igor in the crease up in the air. 10 year olds are in better defensive position than this...

But also... This is a bad hockey team.

Playing man on the PK is asking for trouble. Zone D has proven time and time again to be successful.

Speaking of Mike Judge drawn. Kris Knoblauch

 

[DanielBrassard]

Sam carrick making dangerous plays is so funny to me.

 

[Richard Banger]

But also... This is a bad hockey team.

If they were truly a bad hockey team they wouldn’t be fighting for a playoff spot. The sharks are a bad hockey team.

St Laurent... we're screwed

 

[bleedblue94]

Fox knocked him to his knee,was he supposed to follow it up with an Andre The Giant splash?The guy backhanded it from his knee,it was a fluke goal

In the NHL when you knock a player down he is y eliminated from a play. You need to still be in position to defend. These are the basic/little things nyr doesn't do defensively and it constantly bites them in the ass.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Kreider wants nothing to do with the puck unless he's in a position to shoot it.

Trocheck is not down low presumably with his man.

He's down low presumably with SCHNEIDER'S MAN!!!

Trocheck is a f***ing forward. I know you know hockey better than this.

It's disingenuous nonsense to bitch about a guy that stole your girlfriend.

 

[Megustaelhockey]

K'Andre Miller fighting it more than usual tonight.

They are a bad hockey because they are merely fighting for a playoff spot in a league where literally half the teams make the playoffs.

This will happen though. Die hard fans will be pissed when their team is losing and happy when their team is winning. It happens.

My dad has been a fan of this team since Jesus Christ was the coach, you should hear some of the stuff he says when we're losing. lol You just have to accept it. It's sports.

 

[Boris Zubov]

did you hear his collab with Coheed & Cambria for Jesse's Girl 2?

You lost me at Coheed & Cambria. That's one grating band.

It's not prog if your voice isn't annoying. They don't make the rules.

They needed that break badly!
